Meeting Guidelines – Revised March 2015

All meetings at SHARE! are self-help meetings with no professionals, licensed facilitators or experts. The philosophy of SHARE! is that each person is responsible for his or her own recovery and that every person’s experience is as valid as any others.

The purpose of SHARE! is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment in which people can grow by sharing feelings, experiences, and hope, enabling them to lead happy, healthy, and productive lives. SHARE! was founded in 1992 by service-minded people in the recovery community to carry the message of recovery to those still suffering by creating a safe haven for people to make changes in their lives. We have lived the power of recovery and we are excited to include you and your meeting in our community. We are excited to work with you to help us reach out to those in need. SHARE! is a project of the Emotional Health Association, a California non-profit organization.

MEETING RESPONSIBILITIES: SHARE! agrees to provide meeting space for your meeting as long as the meeting upholds its responsibilities listed below. Those who sign the meeting contract are responsible to keep the participants of their respective meetings informed of these responsibilities.

SPACE USE: Permission to use SHARE! facilities at any other than the specified time must be requested in advance. SHARE! has facilities available for dances, sobriety birthdays, pressure groups, step studies, marathon meetings, 5th step work, central office space and events. Use of SHARE! for any of those purposes can be arranged by calling (310) 305-8878. Unauthorized use of SHARE!’s meeting facilities is not allowed.

MEETING CONTRACT: We ask that each meeting at SHARE! fill out a meeting contract with the name, email address and phone number of at least three people in the meeting. SHARE! must be notified in writing of changes in meeting representatives as soon as they occur, preferably by filling out a new meeting contract which can be found near the office door.

DONATIONS: The meeting agrees to give SHARE! a minimum of $5 per meeting. In addition, the meeting agrees to pay 100% of the meeting collection up to $10. The meeting will keep half of any collection which exceeds $10. (For example, if the meeting collects $20, the meeting pays $15 to SHARE! and keeps $5. If the meeting collects $12, the meeting pays $11 to SHARE! etc.)

This amount is payable the first week of the month by check or money order. No cash is accepted because of the expense of counting the cash and because of auditing requirements. Please mark on the check the time, day, and title of your meeting. Fill out a meeting payment envelope, place the check inside and give it to a Volunteer Coordinator. In the event the office is closed, please slip the envelope under the door.

MEETING SIGN-IN: Each meeting must sign in each week and fill in all relevant information about how many people attend and how much is collected. This information is to be recorded on the Orange Sheets in the sign-in notebook found in each meeting room. Blank Orange Sheets can also be found on the table right outside of the SHARE! office. Directions on completing the sign-in sheet are on the inside cover of the meeting sign-in books. You may also ask a Volunteer Coordinator for help in filling them out.

SERVICE: SHARE! needs your help in spreading and maintaining an atmosphere of recovery. Service uplifts our spirit is can prove a vital part of recovery by giving us the opportunity to help others by sharing our experience, strength, and hope. SHARE! believes that service is an essential part of recovery which builds the spirit of community and recovery that we desire to instill in all those who come to SHARE!. We need you and your meeting to join us in this special aspect of recovery by taking on a service commitment at SHARE!. In that spirit, each meeting agrees to do a minimum of four hours of service at SHARE! every three months.  The Volunteer Coordinators have tasks that need to be done. Perhaps your meeting sees a project that would make SHARE! better for everyone and wants to help with that. Some meetings do not have the ability to do service, those meetings may make donations instead of their service.

COMMUNITY MEETINGS: Occasionally SHARE! holds community meetings. Everyone is welcome to attend and has a vote. Each meeting must send at least one representative to the community meeting.

COMMUNICATION: Periodically we communicate with the meeting via messages on the message board located in each meeting room. The meeting must check the board at the beginning of each meeting and make all necessary announcements.

DEPOSIT: SHARE! collects a $10 meeting deposit for all meetings happening at SHARE!.

POLICIES: No alcohol, drugs, gambling, smoking or pet are allowed at SHARE!. Service animals are allowed but must have proper identification.

BABYSITTING: Children must be supervised at all times. SHARE! encourages meetings to help parents attend meetings by offering babysitting.  Each person in the meeting could babysit for the length of one share and then swap with another meeting goer.  If our parents had gone to meetings, many of us would have started at a much better place in our recovery. Meetings may decide to provide their own babysitter. Meetings needing regular babysitting can also request a free babysitter from SHARE!. SHARE! will try to provide the babysitter, but cannot guarantee that every request will be met. A parent or guardian must remain on the premises for the duration of any babysitting.

NO DISCRIMINATION:  A meeting may designate itself with any focus, such as “Men Only’, “Women Only”, “Gay and Lesbian”, “Christian”, “Jewish”, “African-American”, “Japanese”, or by any other designation. Each meeting agrees not to exclude people arbitrarily or without due process or discriminate against people within the group on grounds of race, color, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identification, age, religion or disability.

Some non-religion focused meetings customarily use God and/or prayers from a religious source, such as the Lord’s Prayer, although a religious focus is not specified in the title of the meeting. We understand that it is not the intention of these meetings to discriminate unjustly. To comply with SHARE!’s non-discrimination policy, these meetings will be designated with an asterisk in SHARE!’s meeting directory.

AFTER YOUR MEETING: Each user group is expected to clean up after their meetings. SHARE! does not have a janitor or someone to clean up after meetings. Thus each meeting is responsible to see that SHARE! is left in order for the next group. Leave the furniture arranged in an orderly fashion. Please turn off the lights after your meeting. Please report any damage or any needed repairs, maintenance, etc., however, remember we rely on volunteers to fix problems. Perhaps someone in your group has the expertise to do the repairs.

Your use of the facilities is contingent upon those in your meeting honoring all of the above.
